I help people heal from trauma, understand the patterns that shape their relationships, and find support as they move through significant life changes. I am a trauma and life transition therapist with more than ten years of experience, and for the past seven years I have specialized as a somatic and Brainspotting therapist. As a licensed clinical social worker, I deeply value acknowledging and exploring the many systems that shape a person’s life and impact their growth. My advanced training in somatic healing modalities, primarily brainspotting, and my full educational background as an alcohol and addiction counselor inform a comprehensive, attuned approach to therapy. While I chose to focus fully on clinical social work rather than obtaining LADC licensure, this foundation continues to shape my work. I also hold certifications as a trauma therapist and integrative mental health professional, in energy medicine and compassion key karmic clearings, which further support my integrative approach.
At the heart of my work is a dedication to social justice, anti-oppression, healing and body autonomy. I identify as both a therapist and a change agent, passionate about reshaping how we care for healing professionals themselves. My values of inclusivity, interconnectedness, openness, and curiosity guide every space I hold.
When I’m not with clients, you’ll likely find me cuddled up with my cat, Bear~equal parts sweet and sassy~ living my best life as a kitchen, forest and green witch experimenting with cooking, wandering among beloved pine trees, or reading about witchcraft. I love dreaming up new adventures and am currently drawn to learning how to use my DSLR, kayak and one day hiking the Cinque Terre.
